Just an FYI to anyone considering using synthetics...
They're great. Unless you have just rebuilt your engine, DO NOT USE SYNTHETICS.
YOu'll eventually spring oil leaks, especially the valve seals, which result in oil consumption, fouled plugs, and smoking when you first start it.
Every known synthetic will cause trouble with the "old" seals, gaskets, and rubber parts.
It's safe and infact, a pretty good thing to do, if you used modern parts and just went through the engine.
